DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE,
State of Oregon,
FINAL DECISION OF DISMISSAL1
Defendant.
This matter came before the court on its own motion to dismiss for failing to appear at the
case management conference set for 10:00 a.m. on April 10, 2017.
On March 24, 2017, the court sent notice of the scheduled case management conference
to Plaintiff at the address Plaintiff provided to the court. The court’s notice was not returned as
undeliverable. That notice advised that if Plaintiff did not appear, the court might dismiss the
appeal.
Plaintiff failed to appear for the scheduled case management conference. On April 10,
2017, the court sent Plaintiff a letter. The court’s letter ordered Plaintiff to submit a written
explanation of why this case should not be dismissed no later than April 24, 2017. Plaintiff did
not submit a written response to the court’s letter explaining his failure to appear. Under such
circumstances, dismissal is appropriate. Now, therefore,
